Did you know that 60% of employees are more likely to disclose a disability to their direct supervisor than to HR? These frontline managers and supervisors provide crucial support to your organization’s disability diversity efforts. Cornell’s Just-in-Time Toolkit for Managers helps your organization develop a culture for people to feel safe identifying their disability to managers, allowing all employees to have the potential to contribute fully to your organization’s goals. This toolkit prepares managers to support employees around disability disclosure, reasonable accommodation, and performance management.

Just-in-Time Toolkit for Employees

Did you know that although people with disabilities represent the largest diversity population in our country today, many organizations are still working to develop a culture that is inclusive of those with disabilities? Also, many employees are struggling to develop comfort in working alongside people with disabilities. The purpose of the customizable Just-in-Time Toolkit for Employees is to highlight your organization’s commitment to including people with disabilities and reinforce the idea that diversity includes disability. It will also educate employees about supporting co-workers with disabilities and accessing your accommodation process, should the need arise. The toolkit is an excellent way to reinforce your organization’s self-identification campaigns.
